After 60,0000 miles the car started having engine problems, and Ford told us that it would need a new transmission and Engine. When asked about the warranty they said there is none (Purchased car new from Ford). In doing research we noticed that there where similar issues for previous year models of the Edge.

ENGINE
I first noticed a hesitancy upon acceleration which I attributed to possible bad gas. I continued driving. A few days later I noticed white smoke coming from the vehicle's exhaust, a more noticeable acceleration issue - missing, hesitancy, - and then the vehicle died when I stopped for a light. I called an independent mechanic. The engine completely stopped on me 4-5 times at traffic lights or stop signs as I drove to his shop. I had several close calls to other vehicles hitting me as my vehicle would not move when I gave gas trying to pull out. Just as I pulled onto the lot, the indicator light came on saying the vehicle was Overheating (this was the first time). The coolant was completely gone and had leaked into cylinders (according to his inspection). After performing other tests overnight on the vehicle, he determined it needed an engine replacement. It is just barely over the warranty at 65,000 miles.

I just brought my car in to my Ford dealership to have an oil change and tires rotated. They are the only ones that service my car. I was told they could not rotate my tires as my lug nuts were swollen. I'm told that the extended warranty that I bought from Ford will not cover that. Now I'm going to be out 110.00 or they won't rotate my tires and was told that I may not be able to get my tire off if I get a flat.

The panoramic Sunroof/Moonroof exploded/imploded while driving at highway speed on interstate 75 in Kentucky. The sound created by the event was terrifying! I thought either a bomb had explode or a high powered bullet had struck the vehicle. A few glass shards got into the cabin, the sunscreen was closed at the time which prevented most of the broken glass from injuring anyone. The vehicle was inspected by a Ford company body shop and one insurance representative. There were no warning or symptoms prior the the failure.

The egr cooler developed a leak causing engine to overheat and cylinder misfire. Estimate from Ford dealer is $2500. We had a 75000 mile extended warranty, but the problem developed at 7800 miles. Only 3000 miles after expiration. We were hoping for some cost relief because of the circumstances involved, but nothing seems to be available

POWER TRAIN
I purchased the vehicle in June 2023 and have barely put 2000 miles on it. I’m 8/21 I noticed white smoke coming out of both exhausts when I started the vehicle. I drove about 1 mile before power train default light came on and it began idling extremely rough. I tried to take it to the dealer the next day and it continued overheating and shutting down. It’s outside of the dealer standard warranty and the purchased extended warranty doesn’t even cover the EGR leak. So a car purchased 2 months ago is now costing us $1600 to repair

The CEL came on indicating a mis fire on cylinder #1. The temperature rose above the warning threshold. After new spark plugs and a new coil pack. The CEL cleared but white smoke came from exhaust pipes indicating coolant intrusion. This was an issue with prior model years. My vehicle is not in the recall window. The car has 78,000+ miles and the extended warranty was for 75,000 miles. Has this issue been reported for 2019 2.0L ecoboost engines?

WHEELS
When obtaining a tire rotation at the Ford Dealership, I was told that I had swollen lug nuts and for safety reasons should be replaced. I never had a vehicle with this problem. To replace all the lug nuts, it was a cost to me of $259.20. This is a manufacturer defect that should have been covered under my extended warranty but was not. I was told that the lug nuts could seize and not be able to be removed if I needed to change my tire. This in my opinion is a safety concern and should be addressed.

Went to get brakes replaced and found out the lug nuts were jammed on and could not be removed, took it to the deal to find out they were swollen on and no one would have been able to remove them but them! They stated they see it all the time if I had a flat no one would have gotten them off it would have had to towed! To me this is a safety hazard that could leave me stranded. They said this was comment I called ford they would not acknowledge it
